EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District, retained Jacobs Government Service Company (Jacobs) to provide Architect-Engineering Services for the 81st Readiness Division (RD) Reset Design Project, for the U.S. Army Reserve Center (USARC), U.S.
Army Reserve Center – FL103, Rattlesnake Point USARC, 5201 West Tyson Avenue, Tampa FL 33611. Jacobs retained Global Consulting, Inc. (GCI) to perform an environmental and hazardous material survey for this project. This report documents the survey of the Facility by GCI’s certified inspector for Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM), Lead-Based Paint (LBP), other hazardous materials, and Universal Waste (UW).
The Facility is scheduled for a partial HVAC renovation (Reset), and this survey was limited to identifying the potentially hazardous materials and conditions that may be impacted by the renovation.
Asbestos:
On February 20, 2019, GCI’s EPA-accredited and licensed Asbestos Inspector assessed the existing building materials suspected to contain asbestos and likely to be impacted during renovation. GCI identified twenty-three (23) specific suspect homogenous building materials, from which a total of seventy-three (73) suspected asbestos-containing samples were collected and submitted for laboratory analysis.
Samples FL103-10.1 to 10.3 was collected from the black mastic on the fiberglass insulated ductwork and was found to contain 8% chrysotile and is classified as a Class II Non-friable ACM. This ductwork is located throughout the old office building and is above the drop ceilings. In the event this material is disturbed during the HVAC Reset this will require the development of abatement specification and drawings.
Sample FL103-20.1 to 20.3 of the black roof flashing on the roof of the old office building and was not found to have asbestos concentration above 1% by weight. FL103-20.4-QC was found to contain 2.7% chrysotile. This material is classified as a Class II Non-friable ACM and if disturbed during the renovation of the HVAC system will require the development of abatement specification and drawings.
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC ii
The black vinyl vibration damper gasket located in the duct work for the HVAC system in Assembly Room 140 could not be sampled without compromising the equipment and is assumed to be ACM. While the vibration damper is considered to have a low potential to be ACM, we recommend this material be sampled and analyzed for asbestos prior to renovation to confirm the classification.
The other twenty-one (21) suspect materials identified, sampled, and analyzed were not found to be asbestos-containing. Remedial action or specification development is not indicated for these building materials.
Details of the survey are presented in Section 2.0 – Asbestos Survey Report, Analytical results are presented in Appendix 1 – ACM Analytical Results and ACM and LBP Sample Locations are presented in Appendix 3 – Sample Location Drawings. The development of asbestos abatement drawings and specifications is indicated for the black mastic on insulated ductwork throughout the old office building.
Lead-Based Paint:
GCI’s Industrial Hygienist (IH), an EPA and certified LBP Inspector, performed a survey of the Facility for Lead-Based Paint (LBP) and Lead-Containing Paint (LCP) painted surfaces that have an elevated potential to be impacted during renovation.
The building components that were sampled and analyzed were not found to be LBP. The following components were sampled, analyzed and did contain lead above the detection limit for the analytical method and are considered to be LCP:
• Tan Paint Exterior Office Walls
• Grey Paint on Concrete Block Walls and Stairs
The other painted building components were not found to have lead (Pb) above the detection limit for the method and are not considered to be LBP or LCP and no special requirements apply. Details of the survey are presented in Section 3.0 – Lead-Based Paint Survey Report.
Analytical results are presented in Appendix 2 – Lead Paint Chip Results. OSHA lead safe work practices should be used if the LCP painted surfaces are disturbed.
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC iii
Other Potential Hazardous Materials:
The Facility was surveyed for other potentially hazardous materials that may be impacted by the HVAC renovation. The existing original lighting systems have an elevated potential to contain mercury-containing florescent light bulbs which should be disposed of in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Universal Waste (UW) Regulations 40 CFR 273. The original fluorescent lighting system in the building has an elevated potential to be equipped with potentially PCB-containing electrical light ballasts that require management as a PCB-containing waste unless specifically marked as non-PCB containing ballasts. Should the lighting system be impacted by the HVAC system renovation, specifications should be developed to address these materials. UW Waste storage issues were not observed.
The fire protection system has an elevated potential to contain ionization-type smoke and fire detectors that are typically constructed with an Americium-241 radioactive source. If impacted by the renovation, these detectors should be segregated and disposed of properly in accordance with Federal, state, and local regulations.
The existing heating and cooling system consists of several air-conditioning systems that contain a significant quantity of potentially regulated refrigerants that may be classified as Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS). Section 608 of the Clean Air Act prohibits the known release of refrigerants and ODS during the maintenance, service, repair, or disposal of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment. The EPA requires proper refrigerant management practices by owners and operators of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems, technicians, and others. The refrigerants should be managed and disposed of in accordance with 40 CFR 82 and applicable Federal, state, and local regulations.

2.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY REPORT
This section describes the site survey and sample collection of suspect ACMs. The site survey was conducted on January 17, 2019, by EPA Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) and State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection accredited Asbestos Inspector, Mr. William Zukauskas. A copy of Mr. Zukauskas’s credentials are presented in Appendix 4.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), are the authorities that regulate activities related to Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACM) in Florida. The EPA regulations enforce four asbestos activities; (1) removal, repair, or encapsulation of ACM, (2) approval of asbestos training providers, (3) regulation of professionals accredited to perform asbestos-related activities, and (4) asbestos in schools. The GPED regulates the enforcement of the EPA’s National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), and enforcement of the asbestos notification regulations.
2.1 Survey Methodology
The asbestos survey was divided into two distinct phases: pre-survey planning and field survey.
2.1.1 Pre-Survey Planning
The pre-survey planning phase included reviewing previous survey reports, drawings, management plans, and abatement reports, if available. Jacobs provided GCI with information regarding the planned HVAC Reset of the Facility. GCI planned a survey strategy and scheduled the survey work. It was determined that this survey should include all applicable and accessible areas of the Facility to ensure that intended renovation, can be conducted in an efficient and safe manner compliant with applicable Federal, state, and local regulations.
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC
2.1.2 Field Survey
The field survey was conducted for the areas affected by the HVAC renovation as determined in the planning phase, and suspect asbestos-containing building materials were identified. Suspect materials that were homogeneous in nature (i.e., uniform in color and texture, installation date) were identified, touched to determine friability, and sampled by removing a small amount of material. Extreme care was taken to avoid potential fiber release during the sampling process. Before sample collection, a fine mist of water was typically applied to the sampling location. Samples were collected using sharpened core samplers and/or utility knives, where necessary, and immediately placed in labeled containers and sealed. Any dust generated was wet-wiped to minimize the potential fiber release. All sampling locations were promptly patched and repaired. The location and condition of each homogeneous material were recorded.
2.2 Analytical Procedures
The samples of suspect ACMs were packaged and delivered under strict chain of custody procedures to EMSL Analytical, Inc. of Tampa, FL, a National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) accredited laboratory. Quality control samples were duplicated in the field and submitted to ATL International Asbestos Testing Laboratories in Mt. Laurel, NJ.
Quantification of asbestos content in bulk samples was performed via EPA 600/R-93/116 Method using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). This method of analysis involves the dispersion staining of a suspect material in a solution of known refractive index and then subjected to illumination by polarized light. The resulting color contrast enables fiber and mineral identification. The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) and the State of Georgia define an ACM as any material containing greater than 1% asbestos.
A summary of field data including the sample designations, gross descriptions, and analytical results are provided in Table 2. The analytical results of all bulk samples and chain of custody documents are provided in Appendix 1.
2.3 Inaccessible and Limited-Access Spaces
Every reasonable effort was made to locate suspect ACM at elevated potential to be

2.4 Survey Limitations
This survey was limited to areas and building systems scheduled for HVAC replacement, upgrade, or renovation as part of the scope of this project. Other suspect materials uncovered during renovation and/or demolition activities not identified within this report should be considered presumed asbestos-containing material (PACM) and should be treated as ACM until sampling and laboratory analysis confirm otherwise.
2.5 Asbestos Survey Results
A total of seventy-three (73) bulk samples were collected from thirteen (23) homogeneous suspect materials during the survey. The suspect ACM and asbestos laboratory analytical results are summarized in Table 2: Description of Homogeneous Areas and Sampling Results.

2.6 Asbestos Conclusions and Recommendations
Regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM) is defined as friable ACM or non-friable ACM with an asbestos fiber content greater than 1% that will be, or has been, subjected to sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading or has crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder during demolition or renovation operations.
Sample FL103-10.1 to 10.3 was collected from the black mastic on the fiberglass insulated ductwork was found to contain 8% Chrysotile and is considered a Class II Non-friable ACM. This ductwork is located throughout the old office building and is above the drop ceilings. In the event this material is disturbed during the HVAC Reset this will require the development of abatement specification and drawings.
Sample FL103-20.1 to 20.3 of the black roof flashing on the roof of the old office building and was not found to have asbestos concentration above 1% by weight. FL103-20.4-QC was found to contain 2.7% chrysotile. This material is classified as a Class II Non-friable
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC
ACM and if disturbed during the renovation of the HVAC system will require the development of abatement specification and drawings.
The black vinyl vibration damper gasket located in the duct work for the HVAC system in Assembly room 140 could not be sampled without compromising the equipment and is assumed to be ACM. While the vibration damper is considered to have a low potential to be ACM, we recommend this material be sampled and analyzed for asbestos prior to renovation to confirm the classification.
The other twenty-one (21) suspect materials identified, sampled, and analyzed as part of the survey were not found to be asbestos-containing. Remedial action or specification development is not indicated for these materials.
If additional suspect materials are identified during renovation/demolition and have not been tested to determine the presence of asbestos, those materials should be protected from impact until further investigated and the asbestos content is determined.
All quantities must be field-verified by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor(s) prior to demolition or renovation.
Sampling locations and positively-identified materials are identified on drawings presented in Appendix 3.
3.0 LEAD-BASED PAINT SURVEY REPORT
This section describes data collection activities including the site survey and sample collection for Lead-Based Paint (LBP) that will be affected by the HVAC renovation. The site survey was completed on February 20, 2019, by EPA-accredited and Lead-Safe State Program Inspector, Mr. William Zukauskas.
3.1 LBP Survey Methodology
Testing for LBP was conducted using paint chips sampling techniques. LBP is defined as a paint containing greater than 0.5% lead by weight according to the FDEP. Samples were delivered to EMSL of Orlando, FL for analysis using Atomic Absorption Analysis for Lead in accordance with method SW846 – 3050B/7000B.
The analytical results are presented in Appendix 2 – Lead Paint Chip Results.
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC
3.2 LBP Survey Results
A total of seven (7) components were assessed using paint chip sampling. These painted surfaces included the components with an elevated potential to be impacted by the planned HVAC renovation. The summary of the paint chip sampled and analyzed are presented in Table 3.

The analytical results for samples FL103-PS-01, 3, 5, 6 and 7 were not found to have detectable levels of lead and no special consideration is required if these painted surfaces are disturbed. Sample FL103-PS-02 and FL103-PS-04 were found to be below the standard for LBP and above the detection limit for the analytical method and are classified as LCP.
Hazardous Material Survey U.S. Army Reserve Center – FL103
Rattlesnake Point USARC
3.3 LBP Conclusions and Recommendations
The tan exterior walls and the grey painted surfaces inspected and sampled were found to be LCP and are classified as lead containing paint. The development of LBP abatement specifications is not indicated. Should these painted surfaces be impacted by the planned HVAC Reset we recommend that OSHA Lead Safe Construction practices be used.
4.0 OTHER POTENTIAL HAZARDOUS AND REGULATED MATERIALS
The Facility was surveyed for other potentially hazardous materials that may be impacted by the planned renovation. The existing original lighting systems have an elevated potential to contain mercury-containing florescent light bulbs and should be disposed of in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Universal Waste (UW) Regulations 40 CFR 273. The original fluorescent lighting fixtures in the building have an elevated potential to be equipped with potentially PCB-containing electrical light ballasts.
These ballasts require management as a PCB-containing waste unless specifically marked as non-PCB containing ballasts. The development of specifications for Universal Waste (UW) and PCB light ballasts is indicated if the lighting system is impacted by the planned HVAC renovation.
The fire protection system has an elevated potential to contain ionization-type smoke and fire detectors that are constructed with an Americium-241 radioactive source. If they do, they should be segregated and disposed of properly in accordance with Federal, state and local regulations.
The existing heating and cooling system consist of several air-conditioning systems that contain a significant quantity of potentially regulated refrigerants that may be classified as Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS). Section 608 of the Clean Air Act prohibits the known release of refrigerants and ODS during the maintenance, service, repair, or disposal of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment. The EPA requires proper refrigerant management practices by owners and operators of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems, technicians, and others. The refrigerants should be managed and disposed of in accordance with 40 CFR 82 and applicable Federal, state, and local regulations.

Information Pertinent to this Report:
Analysis by US EPA 600 93-116: Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM).
Certifications:
NIST-NVLAP No. 101165-0• NYSDOH-ELAP No. 11021• AIHA-LAP, LLC No. 100188•
Quantification at <0.25% by volume is possible with this method. (PC) Indicates Stratified Point Count Method performed. (PC-Trace) means that asbestos was detected but is not quantifiable under the Point Counting regimen. PC Trace represents a <0.25% amount. Analysis includes all distinct separable layers in accordance with EPA 600 Method. If not reported or otherwise noted, layer is either not present or the client has specifically requested that it not be analyzed (ex. analyze until positive instructions). Small asbestos fibers may be missed by PLM due to resolution limitations of the optical microscope. Therefore, PLM is not consistently reliable in detecting asbestos in non-friable organically bound (NOB) materials. Quantitative transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is currently the only method that can pronounce materials as non-asbestos containing.
Analytical Methodology Alternatives: Your initial request for analysis may not have accounted for recent advances in regulatory requirements or advances in technology that are routinely used in similar situations for other qualified projects. You may have the option to explore additional analysis for further information. Below are a few options, listed as the matrix followed by the appropriate methodology. Also included are links to more information on our website.
Bulk Building Materials that are Non-Friable Organically Bound (NOB) by Gravimetric Reduction techniques employing PLM and TEM: ELAP 198.6 (PLM-NOB), ELAP 198.4 (TEM-NOB)

15) Note: Analyzed by EPA 600/R-93/116. Point Counting detection limit at 0.125%.
16) Note: This sample contains >10% vermiculite mineral. See Appendix for Recommendations for Vermiculite Analysis.
Recommendations for Vermiculite Analysis:
Several analytical protocols exist for the analysis of asbestos in vermiculite. These analytical approaches vary depending upon the nature of the vermiculite mineral being tested (e.g. un-processed gange, homogeneous exfoliated books of mica, or mixed mineral composites).Please contact your client representative for pricing and turnaround time options available.
iATL recommends initial testing using the EPA 600/R-93/116 method. This method is specifically designed for the analysis of asbestos in bulk building materials. It provides an acceptable starting point for primary screening of vermiculite for possible asbestos.
Results from this testing may be inconclusive. EPA suggests proceeding to a multi-tiered analysis involving wet separation techniques in conjunction with PLM and TEM gravimetric analysis (EPA 600/R-04/004).
For New York State customers, NYSDOH requires disclaimers and qualifiers for various vermiculite containing samples that direct analysis via ELAP198.6 and ELAP198.8 for samples that contain >10% vermiculite mineral where ELAP198.6 may be used to evaluate the asbestos content of the material. However, any test result using ELAP198.6 will be reported with the following disclaimer: “ELAP198.6 method does not remove vermiculite and may underestimate the level of asbestos present in a sample containing >10% vermiculite.”
Further information on this method and other vermiculite and asbestos issues can be found at the following: Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) www.atsdr.cdc.gov, United States Geological Survey (USGS) www.minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/, US EPA www.epa.gov/asbestos. The USEPA also has an informative brochure "Current Best Practices for Vermiculite Attic Insulation" EPA 747F03001 May 2003, that may assist the health and remediation professional.
The following is a summary of the analytical process outlines in the EPA 600/R-04/004 Method:
1)Analytical Step/Method: Initial Screening by PLM, EPA 600R-93/116 Requirements/Comments: Minimum of 0.1 g of sample. ~0.25% LOQ for most samples.
2)Analytical Step/Method:Wet Separation by PLM Gravimetric Technique, EPA R-04/004 Requirements/Comments: Minimum 50g** of dry sample. Analysis of "Sinks" only.
